If there is gotta be one thing I miss ... It has got to be my husbands grillin.., he did country style ribs for him am his boys tonight . ThE smell of those ribs were to die for . This sleeve can really be challenging at times . But u just have to say no . I am 2 weeks an 3 days out from surgery I am doing Protein Shakes an 1 liter of Water a day . I go back to work on wed of next week and want to be under 200lbs . As of this morning I weighed 202.5 lbs . So far a total loss of 21.5 lbs so ain't ruining it now. Remember u new sleevers out there just say no to food when it smells good an think about the scale... Good nite y'all ..

My husband brought pizza, bread sticks, and chicken for dinner last night! The aroma drove me nuts. To be honest I did have one bite of pizza.

It's very hard! My surgery is Friday, if i was single and kid free it would be so easy by not allowing the food in my house. I'm learning to accept accountability. Today is a new day!! =)

I've had several moments like these the last 2 weeks and honestly don't know how I didn't lose control and eat it all up! But I didn't. Grilled hotdogs have never smelled like such a delicious thing until last night when I couldn't have one. I took a bath instead :)

My surgery is in the morning. Only Clear Liquids for me today.

I gave in and tried some ribs about two months ago (surgery was 8-8-13), I got horrible sick afterwards. I thought for sure I was going to vomit, it was so so close. I also gave in about a month ago and tried a grilled hotdog, I cut the skin off and thought the middle would be fine. NOPE! It felt like it was logged in my stomach and wouldn't digest. I actually felt like I had a huge rock laying in my stomach. So now even just the smell of hotdogs or ribs makes me want to gag. So far I can't do anything with red sauce, which is good in a way, no pizza, no spaghetti, nothing covered with barbeque sauce.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
